<p>A syringe is used for assembling components of a pharmaceutical in a deliver y system for a multiple component pharmaceutical. The syringe is used in conjunction with an adaptor cap and a transfer mechanism containing a double ended needle assembly to transfer a liquid component between the syringe and at least one other penetrable vessel including a vial containing a further component of the pharmaceutical which is then drawn back with the liquid int o the protosyringe. Depending upon the application, the transfer mechanism or part of it may then be removed and discarded, including the vial and at leas t that end of the needle assembly penetrating the vial, so as to leave the syringe filled with both components and either presenting a needle coupling comprised by part of the needle assembly retained on the protosyringe, or presenting the original needle coupling of the syringe.</p> |
